Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
Audi music interface*/Bluetooth au-
dio player*: mobile device is not sup-
ported.
Read the instructions in the chapter > page 176, Multimedia
connections/=> page 173, Bluetooth audio player.
Audi music interface*/AUX input: the
volume is too high/too low when
starting playback through the AUX in-
put.
Adjust the volume of the mobile device to approximately 70%
of the maximum output > page 181, Input level.
Audi music interface*: the portable
device is not recognized as a source.
For many cell phones or mobile devices, playback is not possi-
ble when the battery level is too low (less than 5% of its ca-
pacity). The mobile device will only be recognized as a media
source in the MMI after connecting if the battery charge level
is sufficient.
Audi music interface*: malfunctions
during audio playback through an
iPod/iPhone.
The Bluetooth audio player function is switched on. Switch
this function off > page 192 when you are not using the Blue-
tooth audio player.
AUX input: there is static when con-
necting and disconnecting the AUX
connection cable.
When connecting and disconnecting, the External audio play-
er source is already selected. Before connecting or disconnect-
ing the mobile device, either mute the device (see
=> page 193) or switch to a different audio source (for exam-
ple > page 165, Opening the radio).
Bluetooth audio player*/Wi-Fi audio
player*: audio playback interference.
Only one interface should be actively used at a time to ensure
problem-free playback.
Wi-Fi audio player*: audio playback
interference.
Audio playback interference can occur on some cell phones if
the Internet connection in the vehicle was not established
through the SIM card reader* on the MMI control panel and
the mobile data option on the cell phone is switched on. De-
activate the mobile data option on your cell phone.
Jukebox”: tracks on the imported
playlist are grayed out.
When importing playlists, all of the files themselves must be
imported.
Jukebox*: imported tracks cannot be
played or found.
If you cannot find imported tracks in the media center, they
may not be supported. Only copy supported files > page 183
to the Jukebox.
Wi-Fi audio player*: multiple devices
are connected to the Wi-Fi hotspot. A
media player (such as a smartphone)
appears as the media source and can-
not be changed.
Close the myAudi app on the connected devices (such as
smartphones) that are not being used as the Wi-Fi audio play-
er*. Likewise, close the UPnP server apps or the media permis-
sions on the integrated UPnP/DLNA server. Connect the de-
sired device as a Wi-Fi audio player* > page 174.

Checking and Filling
Checking and Filling
Fuel
Types of gasoline
The correct gasoline grade is stated on the inside
of the fuel filler door.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter
and must only be driven with unleaded gasoline.
Audi recommends using TOP TIER Detergent Gas-
oline. For additional information on TOP TIER De-
tergent Gasoline, visit www.toptiergas.com.
The individual gasoline grades are differentiated
by octane ratings. This value is given with (R
+M)/2 equating to AKI or in RON.
The headings below match the sticker in the fuel
filler door (examples):
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY MIN. (R+M)/2 87
Regular / MIN. RON 91 Regular
Use regular gasoline with minimum 87 AKI /
91 RON > ©.
Audi recommends using premium gasoline with
minimum 91 AKI / 95 RON to achieve the rated
horsepower and torque.
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY PREMIUM MIN. (R
+M)/2 91 / SUPER MIN. RON 95
Using premium gasoline with minimum 91 AKI /
95 RON is recommended.
If premium gasoline is not available, you can also
use regular gasoline 87 AKI / 91 RON. However
this does reduce the engine power slightly.
() Note
— Filling the tank just one time with leaded
fuel or other metallic additives will cause
permanent deterioration to the catalytic
converter function.
— When gasoline with an octane rating that is
too low is used, high speeds or heavy engine
load can lead to engine damage.
@) Tips
The vehicle may be filled with fuel that has a
higher octane rating than what is required by
the engine.
Gasoline mixture
Gasoline with alcohol or MTBE (Methyl-Tert-
Butyl-Ether)
You can use unleaded gasoline mixed with alco-
hol or MTBE (generally labeled as oxygenated
compounds) as long as the fuel meets the follow-
ing conditions:
Gasoline with methanol content (methyl alco-
hol
or methanol)
— Anti-Knock Index is at least 87 AKI
—No more than 3% methanol
— More than 2% solvent
Gasoline with ethanol content (ethyl alcohol or
ethanol)
— Anti-Knock Index is at least 87 AKI
—No more than 15% ethanol
Gasoline with MTBE content
— Anti-Knock Index is at least 87 AKI
—No more than 15% MTBE
Gasoline adapted to the season
Many gasoline fuels are adapted to the seasons.
When the season changes, we recommend refu-
eling at high-traffic gas stations. It is more likely
that the gasoline will be suitable for the season
there.
() Note
— Gasoline with methanol content that does
not meet the specified conditions may cause
corrosion damage and damage to plastic or
rubber components in the fuel system.
— Do not use gasoline that does not meet the
specifications.
— If you are unable to find out if a specific gas-
oline mixture meets the specifications, ask
the gas station operator or their fuel suppli-
er.
